the very best foods

I read the Traveler’s Lunchbox post on “Things To Eat Before You Die” yesterday and was inspired to think about my absolute favorite foods/dining experiences. And no– It didn’t take much inspiration to tip me into that train of thought…If you know me well, you know that “What will you name your babies” and “If you had to eat the same thing every day–what would it be?” are my two favorite questions.

Anyway, here’s one: Medjool dates. Delicious. Eating them makes me want to wander around a spice market in the Near East– you know what I mean? As my mother would say they’re “nature’s candy”–which translates to “you should eat those instead of cookies”
